As the two Jedi try to fight off the vrblthers, they crash-land directly in the middle of the Circus Horrificus. As Master Windu attempts to reason with the Hutt proprietor of the arena, he releases the crazed akks on him. After Mace Windu's failed attempt to calm the beasts, a riot breaks out in the stands over bets made by Vilmarh Grahrk. The Jedi see their opportunity and attack the Hutt, and arrest the manager of the circus, with Republic reinforcements on the way.
